Cutting JaMarcus Russell Is ‘Addition By Subtraction’ For The Raiders

by Joel Thorman

After three years of the JaMarcus Russell experiment, what are Raiders fans thinking about today’s developments? SB Nation’s Silver and Black Pride calls it a very good sign that reality is approaching.

Addition by Subtraction - the Raiders just got even better by releasing the toxic-one whose bad attitude and misuse of his huge talent plagued the team and fans for far too long. This is just more evidence supporting the Raiders' reemergence as a serious, focused contender.

Thank you, Al Davis, for making a series of remarkably good decisions over the past four months.

For a good assortment of pictures, like the one of JaMarcus Russell in a fur coat (seriously), check out Silver and Black Pride.
